Law of Detachment vs Search for Security

“The search for security is an illusion…this means that the search for security and certainty is actually an attachment to the known. And what’s the known? The known is our past. The known is nothing other than the prison of past conditioning. There’s no evolution in that – absolutely none at all…Uncertainty on the other hand, is the fertile ground of pure creativity and freedom.”

Social Security; Security blanket; Secured Transaction (Ok, maybe not the last one, but you know what I mean).

You got to be able to walk across a canyon on a tight rope without a net below. To hell with the thought of falling. We could be knocked off at any moment, but at least we have come “alive” in our creativity, our art, our humanity.

I have found this to be true in my life, Helen. It’s really liberating. Helps me not be as afraid of the future and trying things. We should probably be more afraid of sticking in the past, huh? Good quote…

This is so amazingly (?) true!!!!! All we know is what has passed; what is to come is a mystery, of sorts at least. We know what we can do, however, no idea what may come from that, except greatness in some form if our actions are in line with our dreams!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing indeed!!! What the next moment brings is entirely dependent on our cause of action in the present, and how we continuously respond to our dreams and desires…if we allow them to manifest into “hard ware”, or if we continue to keep them running on back up….I know what your choice is Vanessa, and LOVE your (even greater) enthusiasm!! You rock!!
